I'm also wondering this myself. 2000 4wd. Just had an estimate of $1,700 from Firestone, and $1,600 from a local alignment shop. They both want to use mostly MOOG with a few OEM pieces. I think that convinced me to do it myself as well.

I just ordered a kit that contains 4 ball joints (uppers n lowers) and all the tie rods joints for my 05 Excursion 4x4. Paid $136 shipped on ebay. Proably not as good as the Moog but you can't beat the price. We will see how they hold up.

after reading a bunch of threads on the World Wide Web and hearing people say this one is better than that blah blah blah i decided to go with XRF ball joints and tie rods did i make the right choice i have no idea time will tell....but i did hear a lot of people saying that moog went down hill a little or a lot idk....

but anyway if anyone is interested here are links to XRF stuff just dont blame me if they suck Russian roulette is no joke...........

Yea I is that hard to believe. The red dhead steering box is $350 on there website. So he got All Moog parts for $150? I don't think so. That's (4) ball joints, like 3-4 tie rod ends and a pitman arm. If so post the website.

Ball joint is were I got lucky. I paid 35$ each. Someone had placed balljoints under the old moog part number and had them on sale.
There are deals to be had if you look. Like the monthly discount offers summit sends out
